Quantum Dense Coding Exploiting Bright EPR Beam

Abstract
Highly efficient quantum dense coding for continuous variables has been experimentally accomplished by means of exploiting bright EPR beam with anticorrelation of amplitude quadratures and correlation of phase quadratures, which is generated from a nondegenerate optical parametric amplifier operating in the state of deamplification. Two bits of classical information are encoded on two quadratures of a half of bright EPR beam at the sender Alice and transmitted to the receiver Bob via one qubit of the shared quantum state after encoding. The amplitude and phase signals are simultaneously decoded with the other half of EPR beam by the direct measurement of the Bell-state at Bob. The signal to noise ratios of the simultaneously measured amplitude and phase signals are improved 5.4dB and 4.8dB with respect to that of the shot noise limit respectively. A high degree of immunity to unauthorized eavesdropping of the presented quantum communication scheme is experimentally demonstrated.
